Very interesting photos of floating log ecosystems at a small lake in Michigan.
From @sponge_research, via Twitter:

“Found these really neat free floating log ecosystems in one of the lakes we sample. Pitcher plants, sundews and other stuff. Lake was filled with them.

At Canyon Lake at the Huron Mountain Club. Very interesting lake, no littoral zone for most of the circumference. Apparently each log is like a mini bog, once to much accumulates they sink, only to resurface once enough decomposition has occurred.”
